081 “The Best Men’s Apartment (Limited)” Chapter 80

☆, (7 fresh coins) Chapter 123 Early holiday

Sitting on the train home, I looked out the window silently. The dark night turned the window into a screen of time, sometimes with the lights of thousands of houses, sometimes with a tired face.

Four years and eight trips back and forth. In the past, she was always happy and a little helpless every time she went home.Naturally, she was happy because she could see her parents, but she was helpless because…why she couldn’t be forgotten by those good people.

How many years has it been?Every time I go home, I hear some new rumors about her. In that small city that is hard to find on the map, she seems to be more enduring than those superstars.The funniest thing is that some people don’t know her at all, but they gossip about those rumors with gusto, as if they have seen it with their own eyes, but they don’t know that the person involved is right in front of them.

In order to avoid those ridiculous slanders and irresponsible busybodies, her family moved three times. However, every time, rumors followed her, as if they were spreading rumors themselves, so she later admitted it.

There were many things that couldn’t be explained, so she stopped searching for answers in pain. She learned to be silent, to listen to the rumors as jokes, and to temporarily suppress the fear in her body when people occasionally focused on her.

She is alive and well.As animation master Hayao Miyazaki once said, this world is worth living.No matter how unreasonable people or ridiculous things she encounters, as long as her parents are there and Lingyu is there, she can live with a smile.

A little thirsty… He Lele looked at the bottle of drink she brought to the car on the small table, but had no intention of opening it and drinking it.Because that bottle of drink is not suitable for drinking on an empty stomach, it is a bottle of apple cider vinegar.

The first time she drank apple cider vinegar was because Ling Yu used it to lose weight for a while. Later, Ling Yu accidentally found out that vinegar can relieve muscle tension, so Ling Yu always carried a box in her bag whenever she had something to do.In fact… it was of no use to her, but every time she saw Ling Yu using apple cider vinegar as her life-saving pill, she felt extremely happy, so she never said anything.

Yesterday afternoon in Ruan Lin’s lounge, she was really surprised when Qin Zhixiu took out apple cider vinegar and handed it to her.She wasn’t sure if he knew anything, but the bottle of apple cider vinegar… did soothe her.

At that time, Ji Ji was going to deal with the mess left by Xiao Sha, so she returned to Ruan Lin’s lounge first, and soon Ruan Lin and Qin Zhixiu came in together.

Ruan Lin saw her as soon as he came in. After staring at her for a while, his expression became increasingly ugly.She glanced sideways in the mirror – her face was slightly flushed…

When she was embarrassed, Qin Zhixiu handed her apple cider vinegar.

“Why…want to play tricks on her?” Qin Zhixiu asked with a smile.

He Lele knew that he was asking about the deceptive bet just now, so he lowered his head to take the drink and smiled lightly, “What else?”

After thinking about it and looking at Qin Zhixiu’s beautiful smiling face, He Lele said softly, “I also have a temper.”

“But irritating her won’t do you any good.”

“…Let’s all think so.” He Lele raised her lips, “The whole crew is like this. They know Xiao Sha is childish and willful, but they indulge her repeatedly because of Mingzhe’s protection. Of course I can tolerate it, but…”

“But what?” Qin Zhixiu asked curiously.He was indeed curious as to why she, who had always been kind and tolerant, would impulsively play tricks on Xiao Sha. This did not seem to be in line with her original personality.

“But…she tore my clothes.”

“…”

“…”

Because she was only a temporary assistant and not a public figure, when the news about Xiao Sha was stirred up in many versions, she only passed by the major media as “Assistant He”, and there were no photos.The gossip between stars and assistants is far less interesting and more convenient for publicity than the love-hate relationship between the male and female protagonists, not to mention that the male protagonist of the story is the young actor Ruan Lin, who has never let the paparazzi take any meaningful pictures.

When the gossip was flying, Shen Tumo called and gave her an early leave.

Seven days was enough time for her to have a good rest, so she immediately booked a train ticket home.There haven’t been any big changes at home, except that my parents’ hair on their temples has gradually turned gray.One of the important reasons why she rashly agreed to the job in the apartment was to save money and take her parents away from this city full of sour smell. But now… not only does she have no money left, she also owes money for a set of clothes.

Happy: Is there any kind of work I can do?

While Lingyu was not online, He Lele boarded NG and asked.She had no other friends, so she had to go to NG to ask.

Lazy cat doesn’t take a nap: happy girl!!!!!Long time no see!What have you been busy with lately and haven’t seen anyone yet?If you don’t come, the boss will stop talking!

Writer’s words:

I’m too sleepy to be productive~~I’ll go to bed today~~Go home early tomorrow and see if I can code more~~Then we’ll thank you together~~~Zhuzhu, I’m going to bed today… Girls~~Hey~~Group hugs!!!

☆, (10 fresh coins) Chapter 124 The illusion of hometown

Although most of the hackers on NG are top hackers on the Internet, their offline jobs are all kinds of strange, and many of them have nothing to do with computers at all.Many people’s friendships have moved from the Internet to offline, but online everyone still has a tacit understanding not to mention each other’s true identity.

Asking everyone if they had any work, she actually just said it casually. Seeing how happy everyone was to see her, He Lele smiled and looked at the lines of text that popped up and cheered to everyone.Before being brought into NG by Ling Yu, she almost never spoke on the Internet. She couldn’t tell what to ask, she just didn’t want to.She actually didn’t speak when she first joined NG, until Ling Yu pulled her into singing…Ling Yu opened countless windows into her quiet and dim world, allowing her to spend four years of college with great satisfaction and happiness, and making her face the future more bravely.Meeting Lingyu was one of the two greatest blessings in her life.

Happy: Mina-san, I want to go down first!Don’t go to bed too late, everyone!

Turtle: Wait!Happy sister, will you come again tomorrow?

Happy: Not necessarily. Is something wrong, Brother Turtle?

Turtle: Aren’t you the best at Cryptanalysis?The boss said yesterday that he was looking for someone to do part-time work. If you come over tomorrow night, you might meet the boss!

Lazy Cat Doesn’t Take a Nap: Did the boss come online yesterday?How come I don’t know?

Little bean sprouts:……

Brown Candy:……

The lazy cat doesn’t take a nap: Ah!Yes yes yes!I said it, I said it!I’m so happy that you must come tomorrow!

Happy: With my skills… can I help L?

Lazy cat does not take a nap: Happy girl, be confident, your code-breaking skills were passed down from the boss himself, and your intuition is contrary to the sky. If people outside know that there is such a weirdo like you, they will be mad or crazy!

Turtle: Cat, you talk too much.

Lazy Cat Doesn’t Take a Nap: …I just think it’s a bit of a waste of the happy girl’s talent.I believe in happy girls, and I also believe in the boss’s vision.

Happy: …What is Brother Cat talking about?I don’t understand a bit.

Turtle: Cat, do you have any objections to the boss’s decision?

Lazy cat does not take a nap: No, I just think that any talent a person has is meaningful and should not be wasted.We should give more opportunities to help people develop their talents rather than restrict or ignore them.

Bean sprouts: pig.

Brownie: Stupid pig.

Turtle: The boss doesn’t want to get too involved in the world of hackers, do you understand?

He Lele looked at the screen and felt grateful to everyone at NG.Even though Lazy Mao and Turtle were arguing, they were both doing it for her own good.She knew what Guigui said about L not wanting her to get too involved in the hacker world, because L told her that they were a group of people wandering on the edge of the law, so they were destined to bear certain risks and live in a gray world, but he hoped that she could always live happily and calmly in the sunshine.

L…is always so gentle.

After quitting the group chat and looking through the messages she had left with L over the past three years, she couldn’t help but laugh and shed tears.The first time she received a message from L, she was so surprised. His tone was stiff and distant. Gradually, she sang for him, asked him about cryptanalysis techniques, and joked easily. Three years passed in a flash… And L, who had been so gentle and patient from the beginning, with so many words of concern for her, she got used to it because she had seen so much. Now she sees so much in one breath─

L…

He Lele began to be a little afraid, afraid that she would be greedy for L’s tenderness, afraid that she would have extravagant hopes.So, in the afternoon of the next day, she hurriedly left a message to L and left, but she did not go to NG as promised in the evening.

September 1st.

I searched for a part-time job online for two days, but either I didn’t have the ability or the time. The time was flexible and she could do it, so the commission was very pitiful.

Audiobook voice actor?

A newly released task in the reward hall of the online part-time job website attracted He Lele’s attention. Out of curiosity, she clicked on the task details, but before she could take a closer look at the requirements, her phone rang.

“Lele, are uncle and aunt okay? How have you been resting these days?” He Lele called Lingyu on the day of the holiday, so Ren Lingyu knew she was back home.

“Everything is fine, thank you Lingyu. What about you? Are you still so busy?”

“I’m fine, I’m just worried about you. Lazy Cat said you were looking for a job? Are you short of money?”

“…No, I’m just looking for something to do for myself. Don’t worry, the salary in the apartment is very high.”

“Well, the boss said that if you need it, he has a lot of jobs and the pay is pretty good.”

“No, no need. I found a part-time job.” He Lele quickly refused.

“Oh? Really? What do you do?”

“Yes, yes…” He Lele panicked slightly, and suddenly glanced at the screen, “Yes… to be a voice actor. An audiobook voice actor.”

He introduced Ling Yu according to the mission information, and the lie was temporarily fulfilled.After hanging up the phone, He Lele looked at the screen and decided to give it a try. She didn’t want to lie to Ling Yu. Since she had lied, she could only make the lie come true as much as possible!

According to the task requirements, I recorded a specified text and sent it to the task issuer. Unexpectedly, it passed.The publisher is also very sincere and admits frankly that the commission they give is a bit low. She is very satisfied with having a voice actor of her quality taking over the task. Although the commission is a bit low, the advantage is the large quantity. After the entire series of books is completed, there will still be a lot of commission.

He Lele did some calculations, and if he works hard these days and works hard when he gets back to the apartment, he should have enough money for the clothes when he leaves the apartment, and maybe more!

If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. In order to complete the task better, He Lele decided to buy a better microphone and ordered several related books from the Internet.

After all, it is a small town, and there are not many stores in the computer mall. After shopping around and choosing a more cost-effective one, He Lele paid and waited in the store for the shop owner’s daughter to pick up the goods from the warehouse.

“You…”

He Lele was looking down at her phone when a confused voice sounded in front of her, and she subconsciously looked up.

“Are you He Huan?” a young girl in a light blue dress asked in surprise. Next to her stood a handsome, tall and thin man.

He Lele neither admitted nor denied, but just glanced at the tall and thin man.

“Xiaoqian, do you know this little girl?” the shop owner asked.

“…Of course I know her. Mom, we don’t sell our things to her.”

Writer’s words:

Ahem~ I just need to save a little more to express my thanks~~ I pray that I won’t work overtime on Wednesday night… Mid-Autumn Festival! Mid-Autumn Festival!!Come on!!!Love everyone!
